Fatah fosters ties with Ankara
The Fatah movement has been growing closer to Turkey while its ties with Cairo seem to be deteriorating.
It's no love affair yet, but the relationship between Turkey and Fatah seems to be warming up.
Fatah’s branch in Turkey held its general congress March 20 in Istanbul, drawing Fatah members from various Turkish cities. The congress focused on the political situation of the Palestinian cause and stressed Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’ rejection of any political project that undermines national rights. The talks also called for optimizing relations between Palestinian and Turkish institutions in general.
